SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 530,6elO,vd`atedDecember V11,718.94. Appliomou ined october 10.1893. sein No. 487.779.(No moda l make'and use the same.-

lVhere gas and oil stoves are employed for cooking it is often desirablein cool weather to obtain from them heat for the'purpose of warming theapartment in which such stoves are located, or adjoining rooms. Theburners of such stoves are, however, generally at the top of the deviceand not capable of imparting to the atmosphere of the room any greatamount of heat.

It is the object of my improvement to provide a simple and inexpensiveattachment for ordinary gas, gasoline or oil cooking stoves by the useof which a great amount of heat can beeconomically obtainedtherefrom,and which may be readily put in place or removed accordinglyas itis desired to use the stove for heating or cooking.

With such object in view my invention consists in the parts andcombinations thereof hereinafter set forth and claimed. Y

AIn order to make my invention more 'clearly understood I have shown inthe accompanying drawings means for carrying it into practical eiectwithoutlimiting myimprovements, in their useful applications to theparticular construction which, for `the sake of illustration, I havedelineated.

In said drawing'sz-Figure 1 is a perspective view of a heater embodyingmy invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 isa horizontal sectional view on line 3-3 of Fig. 2. f

Referring to the drawings, 1 indicates the burner or burners of anordinary gas cooking stove, portions of the top of which latter areshown at 2.

3 indicates one or more ascending drums or ducts, their number dependingon the number of burners to be utilized for heating purposes,

open at their lower ends and adapted to iit v -the exit of the airtherefrom, so as to cause the air and products of combustion, carried upthe drums 3 from the burners, to thoroughly heat the drums and boxbefore they escape. Such means may consist of a vplate 6 which partiallycloses the end of the box 5. Preferably the air opening or openings,shown at 7, is or are arranged near the side walls or plates of the box5 as shown so as to cause the heating air to pass down. close to saidwalls andhighly heat the box on all sides.

8, 8 indicate doors in the drums 3 near their lower ends and inproximity to the burners 1. Through these doors the burners may belighted, and an additional` quantity of air may be admitted to thedrums, and, being provided with panes 9 of mica, serve to display theburner flames. At their lower ends the drums are shaped as by notches10, to interlock with portions of the stove top such as the bars 2 andsecure the heater from falling over.

I prefer to construct the attachment of sheet iron, surmounting it by anornamental top or vase 11.

12 is a door formed in the side of the box 5 whereby theexit of agreater quantity of air may be permitted,'and through which such pbining in the box 5 the latter is also very highly heated, the wholedevice serving to produce much warmth and obtaining the maximumcalorific eect from the gas consumed. 5 What I claim is A detachableheater for gas, or oil or other cooking stoves, consistingof supportingdrums open at their lower ends and adapted to rest upon the stove overthe burners thereof, and

1o the central depending box or drum carried by and communicating withsaid supporting drums, and having at its lower end an exib opening oropenings for the heated air, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof Iax my signature in 1 5 the presence of twoWitnesses.
